Garth Brooks headlining Mack, Jack & McConaughey fundraiser

Event takes place at ACL Live in April

Garth Brooks is set to headline the annual Mack, Jack & McConaughey gala, taking place April 27-28 at ACL Live in Austin, TX. The event is a two-day joint fundraising effort of Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey, ACM Award-winning recording artist Jack Ingram, and coaching legend Mack Brown.

“Garth will add unforgettable energy, spirit, and storytelling through song to our gala stage,” McConaughey says in a statement. “Every year Mack, Jack and I are humbled by the support we receive that allows us to serve so many young men and women in need.”

Funds raised at the 2023 event will support CureDuchenne, Dell Children’s Medical Center, HeartGift, Just Keep Livin’ Foundation and The Rise School of Austin.

Presales are underway with the general ticket on sale starting Wednesday, December 21st at 10 am local time via ACL Live.

A few weeks after the event, Brooks will kick off his two year Las Vegas residency — Garth Brooks/Plus ONE Vegas — at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Brooks sold out all dates of the 2023 performances within the first day of going on sale last month. The show has been extended through 2024 due to the overwhelming demand for tickets to his first 27 shows.
